80 COLE'S GARDEN ANNUAL 



GEM SEED DRILL 



This is an excellent low-priced reliable Seed Drill 

 "The Little Gem" will make the drill drop and cover 

 all seeds, such as TURNIP, CARROT, SAGE, SPIN- 

 ACH, ONIONS, PARSNIPS, BEET, etc., and mark the 

 noxt row as perfectly as the best ten dollar drill, 

 and yet it does not cost half the price. It has proved 

 a "decided hit" for those who plant vegetables for 

 home use, and whose root-growing is not extensive 

 enovigh to warrant them in buying a large drill. It 

 wfighs onh' twenty pounds, is a little beauty, and 

 will last many years. 



PRICE, $4-50 



GEM OF THE GARDEN PLOW 



As lately improved we can offer the above imple- 

 ment to gardeners with the assurance that it is fully 

 up to the times, and the most effective and conven- 

 ient tool of the kind introduced. Its working parts 

 are two Scuffle Hoes, one 4i/^ and one 9 inches vv^ide; 

 two plaj's, right and left handed; five cultivator 

 teeth, all of the best steel. The wheel and handles 

 of the "Gem" are adjustable in height, while the 

 frame is so slotted that the hoes, teeth and plows 

 can be set in almost any position or angle. The 

 scuffle hoe makes a clean cut, and is followed by 

 teeth — five or less — which thoroughly pulverize the 

 soil and drag out and expose to the sun the roots 

 of the weeds cut by the hoe. A large number of these 

 machines have been sold during the past year, to the 

 greatest satisfaction of buyers. It is always sold 

 with me privilege of ret\irning it if not entirely sat- 

 isfactory. 



PRICE, SINGLE WHEEL MACHINES, $4.25 



This has, in addition to the Single Wheel Machine sold at $4.00, the Double Wheel Attachment and two 

 extra Steel Blades, which we furnish with the Single Wheel, including all parts shown in the engrav- 

 ing. The Double Wheel Attachments, with these extra Blades, is of great service, working both sides of 

 the rows among young plants. 



DOUBLE AND SINGLE WHEEL COMBINED, $5.50 



THE "PLANET JR." No. 8 HORSE HOE 



• Probably no other cultivating machine is so widely 

 known as the "Planet Jr." Combined Horse Hoc 

 and Cultivator, for it is in ase throughout the civil- 

 ized world. It is so strongly built as to withstand 

 incredible strain, yet it is light and' easy to handle. 



The Frame is extra long and extra high making a 

 tool that will not clog easily. 



The Stiff Steel Standards are hollow with round 

 throats; they polish quickly and free themselves 

 readily from obstructions, and they clasp the frame 

 and strengthen it. 



The Depth is under perfect control b}' a new lever 

 wheel and patent depth regulator, moved instantly 

 in unison by a single lever, making exact work, 

 steadying the machine and relieving the operator. 



The Expander is an entirely new patterns, superipr 

 to all other forms; exceedingly strong, simple, ac 

 curate and positive in all positions. 



The Handle and Braces are also new, and the mostecctive and stiflFest combination known, at once mak- 

 ing the tool rigid, yet allowing eveiy adjustment ofhandles in height and sidewise. 



The reversible Side Hoes patented, are an import ant part of the implement. As shown in the cut, 

 they act as plows or hillers, but when turned end for end the tool becomes a genuine horse hoe, working 

 so shallow and so close, without injury to the roots, that an immense amount of hand labor is saved. 



Every part is perfected to make the tool acceptable to the intelligent farmer, who knows the best is al- 

 ways the cheapest. Price $8.00.
